Below are some frequently asked questions and guides about the email system, if you cannot find the solution you are looking for please contact the Help Desk.

Yes. Regent offers several ways to get connected to the regent.edu email system. In your device's configuration settings, you should use the following server information for the incoming mail server for both POP and IMAP:

remotemail.regent.edu

You will need to ensure that you are using SSL for the connections. This will often be a check box or drop down menu. If you are asked for a port number you will need to use:

IMAP - Port: 993
POP - Port: 995

For the outgoing mail server you will need to use the outgoing mail server of your Internet Service Provider (ISP) if you are connected to a wireless network. This can usually be found on the ISP's website. For example, if Cox is your ISP, your outgoing mail server would be smtp.east.cox.net. If you are using the Regent network to connect to the Internet you can use Regent's outgoing email server smtp.regent.edu. If you are connected via cell services, check with your carrier for the appropriate outgoing email server.

There are two different versions of Mail. The most common and the most user friendly is the standard Mail. The second is a trimmed down version of the standard Mail called Light Mail. The standard version of Mail is only available to users of the Microsoft Internet Explorer web browser. Users of any other web browser must use the light version. Users of Internet Explorer may choose to use the light version, if they wish, by checking the box at the log in screen for Use Outlook Web Access Light. You may want to consider using the light version if you are on a slower Internet connection like dial up.
